Past the Equinox

Title: Past the Equinox
Level: 4
Composer/Arranger: Jack Stamp
Publisher: Neil A. Kjos Music Company
Classification: 20th Century piece
Instrumentation: Full
Source: UND Band Library Score
General Comments: The piece displays the conflict of good and evil musically between two reoccurring themes. Modal shifts over a tonal center and tempo changes help keep the players and conductors attention. Soli sections can highlight strong players. The percussion must number at least five and be fairly proficient. The brass lines at the end of the piece get a bit high in range, particularly in the first trumpet voice.
